Best Practice: Always Start from the Library Site
Why? When using Weizmann Library resources off-campus, start from the Library home page so all necessary access information will be included in links.
How? Search from the Library Search box on the Library Home Page. When you attempt to access Library content for the first time in a session, the proxy service will ask you to log in (that is, authenticate via your Weizmann username/password). One successful login establishes access to all licensed resources during that session, providing access as though on campus.
But I don't want to start from the Library site. Isn't there another solution?
Yes, the Library has several additional options
- Library Proxy Bookmarklet for on-demand proxying works with any java-enabled browser (and also works on mobile phones)
- WIS Library Access Search Assistant integrates Library services in your searching
- MyLibrary personalized webpage - Library staff can work with you or your team to create a subject- or research-group-specific page, providing direct access to enriched links and other helpful content. Contact library@weizmann.ac.il for more information.
